Imagine what the haters would have said if Bryce was either QB in that Thursday night game. Those box score watchers would have been circling like buzzards.

Bryce throws a game-winning TD pass except for the fact XL was on the other end.

Stopped reading after the first sentence. I said he did a near 180 from earlier and your first sentence rewrites my words. Grasping at technicalities of general statements.

The easiest way to get depth is by drafting successful players on cheap contracts. The salary cap prevents hoarding of talent outside of that. But again, any team will feel a decrease in production when they lose their most talented player for the entire season.

Or I'll be driving across the state at that time and won't even be watching the game. If I were, I wouldn't be an irrational idiot moving the goal posts week-to-week regarding what improvement looks like. I was fully ready to move on from Bryce after Week 2. He's done something you don't often see... a near 180 from the lowest point earlier in the season. Him showing improvement, along with our other young talent, should be a welcome sight... not one in which you begin pulling out the microscope to complain like a b all day. I'm just one of those fans that actually gets excited about team improvements. I also don't have irrational expectations for players/team. One team wins the Super Bowl each year. I don't cry and beat my wife each year that it's not us, because I know it's a sport that has no bearing on my real life. I also don't expect for a player to go out there each week and be flawless. I understand it's a team sport more so than a sport like basketball that can be carried by an all-time great. Some don't share those thoughts, but it gets tiresome when those fools put blinders on to stay in the doom-and-gloom mindset. Miserable existence.

TL;DR

I said in general our defense needs talent added. But, when you lose 15% of the front 7 and it happens to be your best player on the defense/team… ya, it’s going to have a clear impact on results. Even more so when the comment was run defense and that starts with having a beast like DB.

Just shut the hell up already

The defense needs more talent, but it’s weird to start this off about run defense and not mention we lost our all-pro DT week 1.

There’s a few douches on here that are going to go to bed tonight angry about that touchdown.

It's a shame there's any fan out there who will honestly be happier to see Bryce have a poor showing this week. See too many of y'all on here.

He's made one FG in the range I randomly threw out... a 56 yarder. We seem to punt when it's more than that. So the question is, when we're at the end of a game down 1... and we're looking at a 60 yard attempt, what play do we choose? Field goal or hail mary?

He's definitely the 40-yard and less sniper. If we had meaningful games with him, we'd miss out on must-have-points when the range is 55-70.

How do you deduce that I'm "proud" of it? I'm just a guy that watches a group of people throw and run around with a ball. They aren't my children. Why would I be proud of it anyway. Maybe you should get a more grounded perspective that is better for your mental health?

We've won three games this year. Or are you referring to the Super Bowl? The one where only 1 of the 32 teams wins each year? You're the "fan" who will be perpetually unhappy until the Panthers make it over the Super Bowl hump.

Our salary cap issues will improve if we can get on track with consecutive draft classes that are actually NFL players. Scott Fitterer was a menace.

I think this past offseason was the RB market floor. Teams with run-first offenses are thriving again now that teams went small in their front 7 personnel. RB market trends back up I bet.

We really need to go all in on personnel and scheme for an unstoppable, run-heavy offense. And our passing game needs to thrive off of RPO and play action.

I think most are just saying there was improvement shown and that’s at least something. Obviously no one would want our #1 pick conversation to be at this place, but it is Including the interception in your narrative is the “tell me you didn’t watch the game without saying you didn’t watch the game.”

I think the last thing I heard he was pursuing a basketball career lol

Yes we have a good o-line. We also are the team that earned the #1 overall pick last year and didn't receive any benefit for that earned position. This is a dumpster fire organization with no culture, consistency, and purpose. This takes time to fix.

Canales was given canned corned beef and anchovies and y'all are asking why he's not plating Michelin-star surf and turf? This roster is the worst I've ever seen as a Panthers fan.

No one is "magical." Some QB's are never going to make it no matter their coaching situation.

Defense is minor league with the injuries at the moment. He'd be more justified for leaving out of protest than we would be to fire him.

The amount of injuries these days makes it that much harder to enjoy the season. Modern NFL players are just too big and fast now, I guess. Leads to more injuries from impact and more injuries from tendons not being able to withstand the speed and weight of movement.
